  1. I would recomend 230 rn bullets.  SWC's tend to be a little harder to get to feed consistantly.  With the extra weight, you don't have to push them as hard (less flip-more straight back push).  

    You will also get more or less smoke depending on the lube that is used.  

    I was using GAT Bullets' 230 gr rn with WST and had very little smoke.

    BTW...GAT Bullets are what Jerry Miculek used to set all his World Speed Records

  2. read an article a while back warning against using small rifle primers in 40S&W.  the claim was that "not enough" preasure was being created to sufficiently seal the gasses in the case because the SRP's were made from too hard of a metal.  the escaping gasses could cause premature breechface erosion.

  3. I use an Allison speed brush with stainless brushes on it between stages.  One or two passes and I'm ready for the next stage.  If I forget to brush the cylinders, I can be assured my 610 won't turn loose at least one moon during the stage.

  4. Grams spring and follower kit and Dawson base pads allow all five of my STI mags to hold 20.  I start with 20+1 and all the others are on the belt with 19.  Reloads are possible with 20, but I would rather "stick" 2 reloads than loose a mag because it doesn't seat and then need to reload again!
